Liberal MEP Resigns After Anti-Semitic Slur

Chris Davies was the leader of the Liberal Democrats in the European parliament but has resigned after telling a Jewish constituent to "enjoy wallowing in your own filth".

This all happened back in May but what I still find shocking is that the Liberal Democrats are not severing their ties with Mr Davies. Sir Menzies Campbell, head of the Liberal Democrats, has asked Mr Davies to stay on as Lib Dem's environmental spokesman. What sort of message is this sending to the voters of the UK?

I know the message it is sending me. But I suppose most sensible people were never going to vote Lib Dem anyway.
